Do you know anything about hardware? If not dont talk to me about it. The OS is pretty much tied in with gaming now so itll likely be using at least 2gb at all times for the OS and like i said it is also sharing memory with the GPU.
It was a beautiful PR move at the sony conference because people dont know much about hardware. As soon as someone said 8GB of RAM everybody is like !!!!!! But in reality it isn't as good as it sounds. Still though, if it is using 2-4gb of RAM Memory then that is up to 8x better the the PS3 which was using 256MB of RAM.

So you are taking 8GBs giving 2GB to the OS and 2-4GBs to the GPU where are the 2-4GBs you are leaving out?
|
The 2-4 left out is what would be used like RAM does in your computer. That would be the unshared part.

No...computers have programs they need to run too and the OS. The OS will take less to run on PS4 than on a PC. I have 8GB memory on my PC. That is way more than enough for games today. Not sure where you're going with this.
If you're expecting MS to go above 8GB, or use less memory for their OS, you're going to be surprised.

No i dont expect MSFT to do more. Im trying to explain what shared memory means though. Maybe you can help me out on that. It isnt what people are making it out to be. I actually use 16gb on my computer ;)
If you pay attention to my first comment i do say that i expect them to be relatively the same and if anything.
